There are now two places you can follow Tricia la Tica, here on blogspot and on Glimpse.org. I'd really like to get picked up by the site as a writer, and they tend to keep an eye on their bloggers. Feel free to follow me there and leave comments to boost my web cred!
Click here to check out my Glimpse profile and see the posts.
Senior journalism and English major at the University of Maryland goes on 12 week hiatus to do volunteer work in a small town in Costa Rica. Can she utilize her mediocre Spanish skills to make new friends and teach English to small children? Can she ingratiate herself with said children without the use of sugary bribes? Will she succumb to malaria (or be driven insane by lucid dreams brought on my anti-malarial meds)? And will she ever make it to the sloth sanctuary? Only time will tell...
ticos
Tico/a(s): Costa Rican(s). The name comes from the Costa Ricans' custom of frequently using the diminutive in their speech, (e.g., "momentico,"), formed by adding the variant "tico" to the end of words.
